Seeing the rise and growth of Taliban troops in Afghanistan, President Mohammad Ashraf Ghani fled the country leaving the people in the middle of crisis and chaos. Him fleeing the country opened doors for the Taliban to focus on governance.
However, the Vice-president of Afghanistan Amrullah Saleh came into the picture and projected himself as the caretaker of war hit Afghanistan. He is currently serving as the President with Ghani leaving the country.
In a series of tweets, Amrullah Saleh said he is the caretaker of Afghanistan currently as per the Constitution of the country. He declared himself as the CareTaker President.
Taking a step further, he had appealed to the world leaders to extend their support to him in the great chaotic situation.
"Clarity: As per d constitution of Afg, in absence, escape, resignation or death of the President the FVP becomes the caretaker President. I am currently inside my country & am the legitimate care taker President. Am reaching out to all leaders to secure their support & consensus," he said in one of his tweets.
As a big twist in the Afghanistan crisis row, the Social Media giant Twitter had suspended his Twitter account saying that he had violated the Twitter policies while making a few tweets.
Rubbishing the reports of taking action on selective accounts over its policies, the Microblogging site said all the accounts that have violated the same would be treated in a similar way and said a dedicated team was set up for cracking down of accounts that have violated the guidelines.
Starting off his journey at the United Front's international liaison office, Amrullah Saleh had served as a spy later. Seeing his skills and calibre he was made the chief of Afghanistan's National Security Directorate (NDS).
Later, he served as the interior Minister when Ghani became the President. It was the second term of Ghani where Amrullah Saleh became the first Vice President of Afghanistan.
With Ghani not in the picture in Afghanistan, Amrullah Saleh declared himself as Caretaker of the nation and gave the reason as him being in the country despite the Taliban advancing for self declaration.
